THE MICHIGAN DAILY 'REVIEWS OF PROGRESS: Union Open House to Feature Wonders of Modern ScienceI By GEORGE WALKER Looking through a long list of adjectives with which to describe the Union Open House, to be held March 6, the men behind the af- fair have come up with a new one -"educational." The 1948 version of the annual event, which Union officers de- scribe as "the biggest in Union history," will feature two pres- entations of the General Motors show "Previews of Progress." Heatless Frying Briefly, the show is a demon- stration of the more outstanding "wonders of modern science." But WHRV To Present All-Student Show A murder mystery will be pre- sented at 10:45 p.m. today over WHRV as the second of the all- student Michigan Radio Work- shop broadcasts. First in a series of "Plays for You," the drama "Today," is the story of an almost-perfect mur- der. Iit was written by Traverse DuVall. The cast consists of John CarrollanddJim Lynch, with Jim Schiavone directing. Hold Those Bonds ! some of the scientific develop- ments which the show covers might better be called "miracles." For instance, frying an egg without heat sounds just a little unbelievable. But the demonstra- tors can prove that such a feat is possible .by placing a telephone book between the stove and the frying pan, and removing the book unharmed, after the egg has been thoroughly fried. Atomic Energy Too Or, for spectators less intrigued by the newest in culinary meth- ods, there will be a demonstra- tion of atomic energy, on a small scale of course. This will be shown in the form of a small, natural "atomic bomb," composed par- tially of uranium and is entirely harmless. Tiny explosions will be picked up by a Gieger counter and amplified till they become audible to the audience. But that's not all. The show will include exhibitions of the manufacture of butyl rubber, jet propulsion, infra-red rays, and many other recent discoveries and refinements from research lab- oratories. , Among other features of the Open House, there will be a pool and ping pong exhibition by cam- pus experts, an aquatic show, and afternoon and evening dancing. Award Keys To 19 Union Staff Members Silver keys were awarded 19 Union staff members at an Awards banquet yesterday in rec- ognition of outstanding work on student committees and various Union activities. Dean Emeritus Joseph A. Bur- sley in a brief address, told how the Union had outgrown the single house in which it was quar- tered in 1904 and expanded stead-j ily until it required the facilities of its present two million dollar building to carry out its many functions. Awards, presented by Allan Farnsworth, secretary, went to the following: John Lindquist, Robert Seeber, Jerry Goldsmith, Cedric Fricke, Robert Perrin, James Kistler, Robert Maier, Richard Foote, William Curry, and Fred McDonald. Also honored were: Lee sun- shine, Robert Netzel, Art Blossey, Richard Allen, Allen Sossin, Pres Holmes, James Smith, Dale Coe- nen, and Allen Borger. Puerto Rico Poets Topic of Lecture The Latin American Society will sponsor a lecture on "Poetry In Puerto Rico" at 7:30 p.m. Tues- day in Rackham Amphitheatre. At a recent meeting attended by students representing all the Latin American republics and Spain, the group, elected a new executive council. The new offi- cers are: Carmen Navas of Puerto Rico, president; Roberto Gordillo of Mexico, vice-president; Man- fredo Drago of Columbia, secre- tary and Santigo Guthman of Ar- gentina, treasurer. The Last Resort "To the glory that was Greece And the grandeur that was Rome," Add the isolated Peace Of a Willow Village Home. Gene Volinsky, house director l of Dorm one, doesn't care when urchins use the gym and other facilities, but now comes the Drawing of the Line. With thef first hot water in three days, Gene paraded in for a bath, found a grimy 10 year old had beaten him, and was gleefully soaping and singing just like he belonged. * * * Without enough stairs to climb in village homes to keep the wives trim, a Play and Games Group (gymnastics) meets each Wednes- day night to do something about it. Wives feel that the girls at Dorm 2 could add the Zip of Youth to the weekly sessions in the University Community Center gym. They are still talking about the mysterious fire in Dorm 10 sev- eral days back. Captain George Cowell of the Village fire de- partment said students Dean Scott and James'Perkins had beaten down the door and were making headway on the fire when help arrived. Only one catch-no one was living in room 58! * * * For Villagers who think every street and court looks like every other street and court, a map will be featured in the new Residents Handbook being compiled by Marion Wilson, Projects Services Advisor to FPHA. With complete information, pictures too, the book will go out to all residents -for free. Cooley Lecture In Law School Shartel To Speak On LegalSystem The first of five lectures in the Thomas M.
